Rustic Cabin trout fishing, dog loving, beach area on secluded 8.5 acres! 001504

Stix and Stones Hilltop Cabin is a very private log cabin nestled in the woods on a charming 8.5 acre large, secluded lot.  We offer big weekly discounts.

This rustic little slice of heaven is perched on a beautifully landscaped hilltop overlooking its grassy valley.  Enjoy chilling out, swimming, fishing, or just listen to the rushing water of Stover Creek that runs through the property. 

Savor utmost privacy all year long with no neighbors in view. Relieve the stress of life further by watching local wildlife watching by. Relish the best nature has to offer from the veranda from one of the rocking chairs, or dine on the open sided furnished porch with gas grill. Prefer a charcoal grill? There is one located just off the deck. 
When it gets cold outside, relax in a rocking chair in front of a real wood burning stove. Firewood is provided.

If you have dogs, please click on the {guest >} and add the pet fee. We welcome and love dogs, have one ourselves, they are family. They are allowed to run free. There is also a 1/4 acre fenced area right at the cabin.

There are 2 bolder fire pits for eating on the grounds areas, covered parking area for recreation vehicles, and even an area for horse trailers. Three full bedrooms provide sleeping for up to six adults. Two full baths, washer and dryer are offered for guest laundry. The kitchen is well equipped including refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, electric stove and oven. There is a Smart TV, YouTube, Prime Video, DVD player, ETC fiber, and WIFI, the cabin has central heat and air. 

Our little slice of paradise is located in the Blue Ridge Wildlife Management Area of the Chattahoochee National Forrest, only an hour and a half from Atlanta. The surrounding area beckons with fun and adventure all year long. The Benton MacKaye and Appalachian Trail heads are about 12 miles away on Springer Mt. Aska and other trails lead to beautiful waterfalls, swinging bridges and fabulous mountain views. Infinite fishing opportunities await you at stocked and natural streams. Kayaking and tubing are offered on the close by Cartecay and Toccoa rivers, they also provide inexpensive shuttles and take you back to your car.  More challenging whitewater rafting is close by. Enjoy biking? Get your mountain bikes ready and explore the trails or spend a day horse back riding. 

The quaint little town of Ellijay is about 15 miles away. Downtown Ellijay offers an abundance of antique shops, art galleries, boutiques and fabulous restaurants. Streets buzz in October during the annual Apple Festival, a guests favorite! Most orchards are open year round and offer tours. Hayrides, putt-putt golf and petting zoos are most treasured by our younger guests. Special occasion around the corner? Summit Wedding Farm is just minutes away. The opportunities are endless! 

The historic city of Blue Ridge is about 25 miles away from the cabin. There you can board an old fashioned train for an excursion along the Toccoa River. Blue Ridge is famous for its shopping, bars and restaurants. Or simply drive up the winding roads of Northwest GA - it is breathtaking! Everywhere you go you will be greeted by Southern hospitality and charm, many of the locals have a few stories to tell. 

We are excited to welcoming you soon at our little slice of heaven and share what we love most. Stix and Stones Hilltop Cabin is quite special and unique. Visit us soon and experience it yourself!

This was by far the best property we’ve stayed with out dogs. Plenty of land to roam freely and lots of privacy. The house is super cozy and had so many games and items for the kiddos. The kitchen is well stocked. The cabin is rural yet just a short drive to Blue Ridge and Ellijay. Andrew was super responsive and very accommodating. We hope to go back soon.

We had a great stay. Very quiet with no one around. I would recommend this property for anyone looking for a cabin in the woods that is serene and relaxing. Plenty of amenities, great hot water and comfortable.We rent a cabin each year between Christmas and New Year's. This one was a bit smaller than we're used to, but only slightly. Easy location. The oven is a bit smaller than usual but was fine for our family of four and one guest.Highly recommended, comfortable, and quiet. Would stay again!

Beautiful cabin! Wonderful owners! It's deep in the middle of the woods, fully equipped with everything you can dream up. The stream is a short hike away from the cabin, but it was nice. We would definitely stay again but a little longer.

Private Getaway

The cabin could not be in a better location. It is just outside of town, but far enough away to get away from the "touristy" style cabin communities. We did many activities around the area including tubing, zip-lining and horse back riding, but the kids just enjoyed being at the property playing in the creek and exploring the woods. We even caught a few fish. The host was super quick communicating when any issue would come up and really went out of their way to ensure we had a great stay.

Super cute and secluded cabin in Ellijay. My family and doggies had a wonderful stay. The fenced in yard was perfect for our 4 legged babies to play in. The creek was also a big hit for everyone.

Just amazing. Fur babies LOVED it too.

My husband and I stayed in this beautiful cabin, and were taken away with how beautiful and spacious the property was. It was such an incredible get away from South Florida. Deep in the woods, large grassy yards, and is absolutely peaceful. We enjoyed exploring the area with our dogs, as well as watching our dogs play in the creek after doing some grilling. We experienced all kinds of different weather the week we were visiting, and there was always something fun to do in Ellijay. The cabin itself was so cute, and large enough for all 4 of us. My dogs were at peace playing around the large spacious fenced in yard. We also thought the wrap around porch that had a functional gate was a beautiful touch too. I felt relaxed knowing my dogs would be safe and happy here. Comfy beds and everything was fully stocked and clean. The owners were great to communicate with as well. Hearing the water from the creek, and the breeze whistle through the trees, makes for a tranquil experience. I spent a long time looking for the best cabin to accommodate me and both my dogs, and this cabin did just that. 10 out of 10, I would stay here again. Very warm and cozy, great fire pit, hot showers, WiFi was great. Very private place and the neighbors in the area are not close by at all. Can’t wait to be back one day!

Mountain Paradise

This is the place for peace and tranquilty. The cabin is stocked with everything you will need and then some. The decor is thoughtful and entertaining. Beds are amazing, expecially in the master. Fireplace and wood burning stove is perfect if you visit in the colder times and completely under AC for the warmer times. Kitchen works perfectly. The creek and stream provide great outdoor adventures. To top it all off, your can bring your best friend along for the fun, the dog friendly environment is the best. Our dog, Valor couldn't decide if he liked the snow or the stream & creek better. If you need anything, the owners are on the spot, friendly awesome folks!

Excellent Dogcation

This is our 4th stay here at the cabin! That should say it all but we have to keep saying it’s the best best-friend friendly cabin around! Hands down. Big fenced yard for carefree running around. The house has everything you need for a carefree stay. The creek area is the best dog friendly swimming you’ll find. No neighbors or other animals to deal with. Perfect for playtime. If you want solitude this is the place Yet still convenient to many small towns and orchards to visit. .
